Abstract

A system (10) and method are provided for interacting one or more individuals. The apparatus and method allow a playing surface to interact with a user or a physical object (12). The physical object is associated with goods suitable for use with the system, such as balls, footwear, racquets and other suitable goods. The system is capable of tracking each user and tracking each physical object. The system is illuminable in a spectrum of colors under control of a computer. The computer can control the illumination of the system based in part on detected movement or predicted movement or both, of a user and of a physical object. Moreover, the system provides a number of pressure sensitive surfaces to detect and track a user. The system is suitable for placement on a floor, a ceiling, and one or more walls or any combination thereof.
